I think you are correct G-man, almost. But on the subject of the movies....
To force countries to show a majority of Hollywood movies if said nation wants a nafta deal?
a show of respect for other nations culture this ain't
No, it's not, but seeing as how we usually take a hit on any international free trade agreement. I say make any stipulation we want and if other countries don't want us to boost thier ecconomy by buying thier crap because they don't want to show our movies then so be it let them keep thier exports and have a "Yahoo Serious" Film festival.
It works both ways, you know. Stay for the credits see how much production was done in Canada. The favourable exchange rate and availability of labour at lower cost a great deal of Hollywood production has gone North. Talk to anyone outside the executive suite about it and you'll get an earfull about the GD Canadians.
Open the film with a panoramic aerial shot of NYC or LA and shoot the rest of the movie in Toronto or Montreal. All the dailys, film stock, caterers and carpenters are procured in Canada. It's had a big impact on our domestic film industry.
Yea, not really sure what that has to do with what I said. Trade is trade. You give us something we want we give you something you want. Sounds like that's the case with Canada, eh?
